Description
They entered the horrible bag... They survived the twisted tower... But can they escape the cursed cloak?
Zenith Maelstrom is running out of time. It's only been a month on Earth since he was ejected from the macabre world of GrahBhag, with his sister Apogee and best friend Kevin still trapped inside, but in GrahBhag, years are passing. And with the horrible bag out of reach, Zenith has no way to get back to save them.
That is until a ragged portal opens up in an alley's brick wall, spewing out torrents of water and a tentacled monster, and allows him passage back into GrahBhag. Once there, he learns that things are more dire than he thought, as the literal fabric of the terrifying world has begun to rip at the seams. If Zenith has any chance to save his sister - and maybe even GrahBhag in the process - he'll have to dive deeper into the secrets of this terrible world than he ever has before. For the Wraith is haunting, and time is not on his side...
With a combination of dry, absurdist humour and no-holds-barred horror, Rob Renzetti has crafted a delightfully imaginative fantasy world that will hook readers as surely as it will send chills down their spines.

Reviews / Votes
"The heart of the story is Renzetti's immersive world, populated by otherworldly characters like the quippy Schroedinger's Cat and Zenith's likable, trusty, and quirky gargoyle sidekick, Kreeble. What stands out most among the fantastical elements is the fierce love between Zenith and Apogee and their deep appreciation for the many creatures in GrahBhag... A rewarding ending to an imaginative, wholly original series."-Kirkus ReviewsMore details
